  1. 1. A Method for Optimised Allocation of System Architectures with Real-time Constraints

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Ventovaara Marcus; Hasanbegović Arman; [2018]
    Keywords : optimised allocation; system architectures; automotive systems; real-time; response time analysis; integer linear programming; design space exploration; worst-case execution time; functional safety;

    Abstract : Optimised allocation of system architectures is a well researched area as it can greatly reduce the developmental cost of systems and increase performance and reliability in their respective applications.In conjunction with the recent shift from federated to integrated architectures in automotive, and the increasing complexity of computer systems, both in terms of software and hardware, the applications of design space exploration and optimised allocation of system architectures are of great interest.

  3. 2. Does prenatal hypoxia lead to permanent cardiovascular change in the offspring?

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Author : Elisabeth Brolin; [2015]
    Keywords : Developmental programming; hypoxia; dofetilide; telemetry;

    Abstract : Chronic prenatal hypoxia is associated with intrauterine growth retardation and there is now some evidence that it also induces programmed hypertension in offspring. However these studies are generally confounded as hypoxia is either induced by maternal hypoxia or placental insufficiency. READ MORE

  4. 3. Grb10 and developmental programming: evaluation of a maternal diet restriction model during gestation

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Daniel Bergman; [2015]
    Keywords : Grb10; epigenetics; imprinting; gene imprinting; developmental programming; DNA; methylation; material restriction diet; gestation; knock-out mice; obesity; diabetes; coronary heart disease; huypertension; epigenetik; prägling; genomisk prägling; perinatal programmering; metylering; maternell restriktionsdiet; dräktighet; knock-outmöss; övervikt; diabetes; hjärt - och kärlsjukdom; hypertoni;

    Abstract : This study was conducted at the University of Bath, UK, from September to December 2014 as part of an ongoing research project aimed at elucidating how the Grb10 gene might act as a mediator of long-term health effects (such as predisposition to obesity, diabetes, coronary heart disease and hypertension) caused by environmental factors during development. This phenomenon is known as developmental programming. READ MORE
